The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast returns to finish off the year with host Scotty P and Seibertron sitting down on a Sunday afternoon to talk all about the soon-to-be-released Transformers: War for Cybertron, "Chapter Two: Earthrise" cartoon series. This series releases to the public December 30th for streaming exclusively on Netflix, but we've been fortunate enough to get to watch it and bring you our thoughts on the first five episodes in podcast form. If you prefer to read about it instead, check out our written review of Earthrise over here, which doesn't directly spoil content like this podcast episode does.

Episode #267 “Netflix Earthrise Reviewed” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.

In case it wasn't already clear, please be aware this podcast episode contains full spoilers for the first five episodes (out of six) of Transformers: War for Cybertron, "Chapter Two: Earthrise". If you don't want to be spoiled, you should not listen to this episode until after you have watched the series.

In this episode we discuss the Earthrise cartoon episode by episode:

• Episode 1 and its similarities to the previous chapter, Siege.
  
  
  
  
• The Mercenaries show up for fun times in the second episode.
  
  
  
  
• Is the third episode the charm? No.
  
  
  
  
• The show's fourth episode puts Scotty P to sleep.
  
  
  
  
• Episode 5 finally begins to put a little light in our darkest hour. Well, not the darkest, but things were getting less than good.
  
  
  
  
• At the end and throughout as well, we provide our thoughts on the series in general to the extent allowed, including the pacing, characters, voice acting, voice direction and much more.
  
  

This episode rounds out another year of the Twincast / Podcast, and we hope it helped you get through a uniquely challenging time. We'll see you around the bend in 2021 and hope you have a safe, happy and healthy new year!
